This is a great time to be working at the intersection of food+tech, with many talented innovators worldwide working to change the food system. Join me in supporting them. (See Google Calendar below for a list of a range of events.)

Since November 8th 2016 I've become even more motivated to devote time and energy to supporting civil and civic society in America. I encourage all New Yorkers to join Civic Hall, a one-of-a-kind collaboration center for the world’s civic innovators, a community space where social entrepreneurs, change-makers, government employees, hackers, academics, journalists, and artists share knowledge, build tools, and solve problems together. Membership includes what's now my ESSENTIAL MORNING READ, Civicist 1st Post by the CH team, including journalist & Personal Democracy Media founder Micah Sifry.

The Google calendar below lists events by organizations I work with directly as well as from many others. (Please excuse duplicates; we support each other with cross-posts.) You'll likely find programs of interest if you scroll the calendar. Below the calendar are Past Events from more folks with which you might want to connect.
